College Fair

I was invited to represent my career in this year's Honolulu College Fair. My first experience doing a something like this for my own business.

It wasn't bad. Seems like there were quite a few kids and parents really interested in graphic design. I certainly felt awkward answering questions like I was some major player in this field, but I did my best giving the kids my honest opinion about my experiences. I hope it helped.

I got a lot of good questions like....

"What are the biggest challenges you face as a designer?"
"Will I find opportunities for work when I come out of design school?"
"What are some of the best schools to go to if I'm interested in design?"
"Do you make good money as a designer?"

It really got me thinking about what I do and why I was in this career as well. Overall I'd say this was worth doing and I got as much out of it as the kids.

I was SOO tired though. It was a busy day even before I had gone to this event. So I hope my answers to these kids were coherent.
